Accessibility of Building and Programs
We welcome and affirm people of all abilities. We have taken the following steps to assure that no one is excluded for full participation in the life of our church.
Mobility
Our sanctuary, fellowship hall, religious education classrooms and bathrooms are fully accessible to those using wheelchairs or having limited mobility.
Sight
Large print hymnals and Orders of Service are available upon request. Braille hymnals are not currently available. Please ask any usher for assistance.
Hearing
We have wire loop technology connected to our PA system. During all church services, meetings and workshops, anyone wishing to speak from the audience is strongly encouraged to use the wireless microphones so those who are hard of hearing are not excluded.
Special Needs Children
If you want your child to participate in the religious education program and feel that they may require special accommodation due to learning disabilities or behavioral issues, please contact the Director of Faith Formation in advance so the best possible arrangements can be made.
Pastoral Care
We provide pastoral care to all members regardless of ability. To build the beloved community, the volunteers on the care team receive special training to assist those who may feel unwelcome, patronized or marginalized because of their disability. They may not be able to fully remedy every situation, but they can provide a compassionate ear and a willingness to enlist the help of others. If you have a hidden disability that you think it’s important for someone to know, please contact a member of the pastoral care team to share your information in confidence.
Service Animals
We have grassy areas where service animals may relieve themselves. If you have any questions not answered or concerns not addressed, please contact the church office to seek further information.
